Aluminum printing plates are used in offset printing of books, newspapers, fliers and other print media. These thin metal plates are etched 

with the image or text to be printed, inked and used to indirectly transfer that ink to the paper. These plates cannot be re-etched. They must

be melted down to make new plates or used for other purposes after printing has been completed. Some applications, such as newspaper 

printing, produce huge numbers of waste plates.
